Figured we might as well make one...

Kemba is playing right now with the Bobcats. Their lineup looks quite similar to the lineup I expect to see in November with Kemba, Biyombo, MKG etc starting.

This Vegas Summer League is so much better than the Orlando one. I have already been impressed by Barnes, Thompson and Draymond Green in the Golden State/Lakers game.

Kemba just had a sick spin move in the open court for a lay-up, and yea its no contest between Vegas and Orlando, the presentation is much better.

For a summer league game, the Bobcats team was great. Taylor looked solid, MKG looked good, Kemba looked good, Mullens looked decent. They'll still be one of the worst teams in the league, but I don't think they will be historically bad.

Kemba and Ben Gordon will be very fun in NBA2K13.

Agree...the Bobcats look very good. Unfortunately, other than BenG, their summer league team is pretty much their regular team, so it is going to be another long season. At least they all play very hard and show exciting signs

smh, why are the Rockets still starting Fortson when Machado played much better than him and Fortson doesn't really seem to have PG skills? I would much rather see Lamb playing with Machado to start off.

Lamb vs Beal coming up now

One of the commentators was talking about how long Beal's arms were at his position and height at 6'5". He's got a 6'8" wingspan. Jeremy plays the same position, is the same height, and has longer arms. WTF? I guess when you're drafted that much higher.....

Lamb looks like he's been doing a lot of lifting. He not cut like Ben or anything, but he's not a string bean any more either.

Love watching him get to the line.

The last 2 minutes of the first half will not go on the Scott Machado highlight tape. Three straight sloppy turnovers on three straight possessions resulting in fast breaks the other way. Lamb then foolishly shot a 65-footer to kill his stats, but at least he waited until there was one second left.

Lambo was great, don't have a boxscore at the moment but I believe he finished with 26, was his usual efficient self and he actually looked committed on the defensive end. He was very active, got down in a stance and didn't play as upright as he did so much of last season.

He did play great, though I think he was being showcased. Over 33 minutes and didn't sub till the 4th. 8-15 FG, 3-8 from 3, 26 Tyler Phommachanh. He attacked a few times and got to the line, showed his whole game that we know, slashing, floater, 3, pull up. He really shoots the best off the dribble when he's moving to his left. If he is traded, I hope all goes smoothly because it seems like he really likes being a Houston Rocket.

And one (well, at least one) of his 3-point misses was from 65 feet. Only saw the end of the half and start of third before cable froze.

Jerome Dyson on now with the Hornets. Nice drive to the hoop. Hope he gets a roster spot.
